Also, for what its worth, my opinion on text/html inclusions is that the default background should be the UA default, and not transparent, but that it should be allowed to be set to transparent (which would only make a difference in inclusions). I also think that client-side includes would be a very good idea.. using something like a MIME type of text/htmlfrag.
